Will the T5-1000 catch/hold the starting amps draw on a AC compressor during starting?
No, the Fluke T5-1000 Voltage, Continuity and Current Tester does not have an Inrush Current function that would capture and Hold the starting current of a compressor. You need a Clampmeter with Inrush function such as the Fluke-374FC, Fluke-375FC or Fluke-376FC.

Rated 5 out of 5 by CTrain from Great tester. Seems durable and reliable. You really get what you pay for when it comes to testers. Much more reliable and robust than my CE Multimeter.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Mary B from Fluke leads pull apart after being stored in holde The shipment was quick however, after using the Voltage tester for about a month. I do not like the way the electrodes slip off the leads when pulled out of their holders. I solved the problem by wrapping with electrical tape but I think you need to fix this- very cheap and definitely not Fluke quality
My previous T5-1000 never had this problem because the leads were solidly attached to the testing electrodes

Rated 2 out of 5 by IBEW UNION ELECTRICIAN from Not terribly happy I've had the t5 for close to 20 yrs. I do use it but not every day, perhaps once a month or so. It has not held up as its seen light duty use since purchase. Perhaps I expected too much for the $130 I paid for it. Presently it will not do continuety anymore. I cleaned the contact pads in the multi wheel and it worked for a while but back to not working. I called Fluke service and was told they do not service the t5. Go figure, purchase another one is their solution.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Ethan from Probably Refurbished Packaging was opened and the meter looked like it had been used. It had had black residue in the continuity opening. Probably from cable jacketing. All it’s functions work properly so far. A little disappointed knowing it’s probably refurbished though and I chose to purchase it directly through fluke instead of Amazon.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Neighbs2012 from Trusted product As an apprentice journeyman electricians always carried the fluke brand and I didn't know why, but I soon learned that it is because the fluke brand is simply the best there is. I love my fluke T5-1000, it is a very reliable tester and something that every electrician should carry.
